Notes

append will invalidate any node lookup caches, remove the node’s parent if it exists, set the parent of node to self, and add the node to self’s children.

Examples

>>> from skbio import TreeNode
>>> root = TreeNode(name="root")
>>> child1 = TreeNode(name="child1")
>>> child2 = TreeNode(name="child2")
>>> root.append(child1)
>>> root.append(child2)
>>> print(root)
(child1,child2)root;
